LeBron James shuts down that ‘tired LeBron’ storyline

The Cleveland Cavaliers are down two games in the NBA Finals, so LeBron James must be tired, right?

Wrong.

James, who is averaging a triple-double in the Finals against the Golden State Warriors, shut down all the storylines about fatigue with a smile on Wednesday.

James is performing so well in the Finals that in Game 2, he tied Magic Johnson for most triple-doubles in Finals’ history.

Here’s some of the scenes of James’ play from Sunday’s Game 2 loss.

Game 3 will tip off at 9 p.m. on ABC from Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena.
